[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1391799, member: 24565"] Preaching to the choir as you know. Select for trait or particular function and you get a type. High marbling will be Wagyu-like. Better muscling will give heifers that are beefy looking (male trait) with cows that are heavy without a good wedge shape. You cannot change them without changing them. Bulls need to be masculine, steers intermediate in type and heifers need to be feminine. Many females look too much like a steer. The swayback: I don't get that at all. Who wants an ugly animal much less one that will not last. [/QUOTE]
